Important Updates Regarding the 2020 Version of the Civics Test
Beginning on April 19, 2021, USCIS is administering only the 2008 civics test to N-400 applicants at their initial interview appointment, regardless of their filing date. USCIS will no longer offer the 2020 civics test at the initial interview, but will continue to provide study materials for the 2020 test for those applicants who are eligible to choose between the 2008 or 2020 civics test at their re-exam or N-336 hearing.
For more information about the 2020 civics test, visit The 2020 Version of the Civics Test page.

Certain applicants, because of age and time as a lawful permanent resident, are exempt from the English requirements for naturalization and may take the civics test in the language of their choice. For more information, see the exceptions and accommodations page and the USCIS Policy Manual Citizenship and Naturalization Guidance.
